Hello, Stefano. In surface, your changes seem valid to me. In fact, it
is
recommended to not Build-Depend on xlibs-dev, but on the individual -dev
packages. This is not a matter of X.Org, but evolution of the development
packages.
You have detected this issue because the xlibs-dev was not properly
updated
for -4 and before, and you needed one of those missing -dev packages.
Please avoid xlibs-dev dependency in the future. It is a dummy package
to be
removed.
Best regards,
Ender.
